Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
Get up there early. Best of all is Thursday afternoon while everyone else is setting up and getting in, but as early as you can. The various activities get more crowded as the w/e progresses, but on Thursday and Friday you can check your email, burn a free disc or three, play heady games and guitars at this VW thingie, pick up all your swag and take it back to your car instead of leaving it in Centeroo, again...
I barely touched any of that stuff my first three years, but I got a lot more value from my ticket last year by enjoying that stuff.
Don't forget the free smokes! American Spirit was there last year with an airconditioned smoking tent. I don't smoke but I damn sure lit up and cooled off...
agree. the music isn't the only thing to look forward too.. I hope that smoking tent is back this year, it was awesome. sit in a cooled tent and lite up a free smoke. best idea ever!
I'll be in Centeroo as soon as we get our camp set up on Thursday. Oh yeah, and after I find myself some goodies. I might have to go back to smoking cigs for the weekend. If it's free, I mean HEY.

def get to centeroo as early as possible, for allof you rooers who were there last year early, youll remember the bamboo forest that they had set up last year, it was just a huge area that had a bunch of bamboo sticks sticking out of the ground, and it was meant to just be looked at and to walk around in, but everyone was banging the bamboo together because it made crazy ass noises, and so they were forced to take it down before friday morning, which sucks because that was something that was amazing that practicly noone saw because it was down before anyone could really enjoy it
Those Bamboo sticks were awesome, but I think it was a good move to take them down. Those sticks were instant death! I love enjoying all that stuff early thursday, but really I scout out my spots for different tents and stages. You gotta have the meeting spots, and I like to wander
They have a Relix area there too where if you sign up you get a free relix lighter! Unfortunatly I chose to bill me later so I only got the issue with Trey on it right away & no lighter

Don't do it man. Read what you wrote... you are falling into their evil trap. Bastards.
I agree!! lol. everytime you want to smoke a smig, think about that commercial with the guy who has a hole in his throat and where he says 'nothing will ever be the same again".
yeah those bastard genius marketing ploys!! sure the 1st ones free the others just cost you...well I'm not sure cause I don't smoke, but I bet it will cost you something!
LOL, when I saw the bamboo sticks I thought it was the Sonic Forest at first. there was a worker standing there watching it, and I asked him "Is this it?" He replied, "Yea people keep knocking them down." For the next day I thought the Bamboo Forest was the sonic forest until my tripping ass stumbled onto the REAL sonic forest on Friday night.
Ok, we get it. You guys don't like cigarrettes. Last time I checked this was a free country, and cigs are legal. I'm pretty sure everyone here is adult enough to make their own life decisions.
enough of this, let's get the thread back on topic.
Anyone checking out the DJ's in the silent disco this year? I never went in last year, but I'm definitely going in this year. Watching all those people dance around with headphones on and no music playing was SOOOO FUNNY!!

And don't forget Planet Roo. My friends from Moonshadow/SVI are some of the sweetest, smartest, and sexiest activists you'll ever meet. Plus they are doing cool stuff all weekend from songs to slideshows to eco-building.

Don't forget the Such & Such art area! These are the people that make some of the images from the Burning Man festival so freakin' cool. The bass player in my band (Jango Monkey) is involved in the construction of the giant metal umbrella / mist tent / sound & light installation. When inside the umbrella, feel free to give a shout out to "Timmy" (bonus point if you can pronounce it "Tim-mah").
There will be LOTS of fire (15 foot tall working bic lighter / fire flowers).
Man if you become addicted after a puff you've got some other personality issues you might want to get checked out. I can smoke for a week, stop when the nicotine buzz quits, and pick it up again a few months later if I'm so inclined.

I am and the study was talking about people that are/were previously addicted.
Secondly, your are an obvious exception to the rule if you are being honest.
Thirdly, smoking cigarettes does NOTHING GOOD for you. At least smoke bud and get high.

yeah man. I didn't get to go in last year either. I was thinking about goin in an altered state of mind and not even ware the headphones and dance with everyone.. tell me that wouldn't be fun!
Bastards.
